Regardless of where you purchase the adapter, you should call Sony tech support to verify which hot shoe adapter you need. I ended up ordering the wrong one and now have to return it. They don't make it easy to figure this out, in fact, I was on hold for quite some time before I was able to get a definite answer. Just explain what you are tryinig to do and ask them to tell you what you need. I went from the A350 to the A77II so the (fairly expensive) flash I currently own won't fit. Hopefully the adapter will do the trick. I have seen positive and negative feedback.

Hi Brad, it would depend on the type of shoe mount the flash is compatible with. You can use this mount adapter if the flash is compatible with the Multi Interface Shoe. Thanks_Mitch

I don't have any more Pentax flashes but they have a standardized shoe like Nikon, I'm sure it would work. Sony, maybe not, but Pentax should be fine

The camera does NOT have built-in flash. One of the reasons I did buy it was to share my other Canon accessories that work on the normal DSLR line with the EOS-M, such as my Speedlite.

Actually just looking on the boards here I found out the answer. I had it set to Burst Mode in the settings because I was trying out all the features the week before. So even on the IA setting, it would not take photos with flash. I am sure that was somewhere in the manual or it might just be a known photography thing.

A very pertinent question that only the seller can answer, as it depends on the manufacture date of the camera. the link to download the latest firmware update (1.06) is http://www.sony.co.uk/support/en/product/SLT-A77/downloads/FW_A77_V106_WIN. Sure is a lot easier if that version i already on your camera when you buy it though:)

It works with Sony A7, but not well. In the TTL mode, it is severely underpowered with bright background. The Auto mode seems to work better with bright background. Sony HVL-43M (TTL mode) provide more accurate exposure. I also tried Nikon SB800 in the Auto mode (it mounts directly with no adapter). It seems to work as good as Metz and Sony in the Auto mode. Quantum Trio and QFlash T5d-R for Nikon in the Auto mode and manual mode, however, provide the best exposure. Sony & Metz flashes sync at 1/250 sec no problem. But Nikon and Quantum flashes cannot sync at 1/250. It has to be 1/200 or slower.

Yes. Be sure to read your manual, but you can use your flash and anything else you want provided it's supported by the specific function.

Works like a charm....I've used it on the hot shoe and with the wireless feature....I've had no problems...I will say because of the A77 advance technology I fine some time I have to reduce the output power on the flash to prevent over exposure when the camera is set to auto ISO. Other than that I have no problem using my 5600hd flash with the A77.

Are you using a Sony camera or Nikon? If you have a Nikon camera, look for the Nikon version. If you have a Sony camera with a Nikon flash and want to get them to work together. . . . this is what I did. I purchased this to use the trigger with my Sony A99 camera and then bought thereceivers for Nikon flash - then mixed the two. As a result, I can sync my two Nikon flashes along with my Sony flash via my Sony camera.

They changed the hot shoe for the flash to an industry standard hot shoe. I dont know what hot shoe the a65 uses but if it is the old traditional "sony" hot shoe it wont work. Everything else from my a77 is directly compatible though. Batteries, lenses, memory cards...

Yeah. I work with sony a77 with FA-HS1AM adapter (must be modified - too low voltage to start trigger!!!). Nikon - works good. Leica works good too. Flash complex by Aurora (Korea)

This is a dedicated flash for Canon. The auto flash exposure won't work on Sony.

The a99 comes with a hotshoe adaptor to accept the older Sony flash units. I've used the older 56 and 20FM models with the a99 and they work just fine with the included adaptor.

I don't know . . . I only have the A7r. However, with the A7r it wasn't completely clear: they made a bunch of them with a proprietary connector, and they made a bunch with a standard connector. In the end, I went to a brick and mortar camera store and took the camera and flash with me. Turned out that I did need an adapter. I LOVE the flash, however. First rate, good size, etc.

This flash is not compatible, you will need either the DSLR300 or the DSLR400VS for your Sony A100 camera.

I bought these items to go with my Sony A700 and A900. Both these cameras have the "Sony" hot shoe on them and the transmitter works with them. The receiver also has the "Sony" hot shoe so it works with "Sony" flashes and will not fit a regular"standard" flash unit, which is basically every other brand including the Neewer. The newer Sony cameras and flashes are changing over to the same standard as every other brand has, however the A77 has the older style hotshoe I believe. That said I also use these triggers with my studio strobes connecting with the included sync cord. Wanting to give you a good answer I spent some time looking at the photos of the items you are considering buying and I noticed that the photos showed two different versions of the item and the headline of the ad listed a different model number than the product details listed below. The photos are also confusing because some show a standard hot shoe and others the Sony hot shoe. My suggestion is to buy the "Sony" trigger and a "standard" receiver. What adds to the confusion is that the two different styles both have the same model number!! I bought an extra receiver so I could trigger two flashes and I have been pleased with the products so far.
